8 Known Issues
33403 Once you configure the primary and 
secondary SKM servers on the library 
remote web client and encryption keys are 
generated, if you switch the key servers 
(i.e., you try to make the primary server the 
secondary server, or vice versa), SKM will 
not function. 
The library remembers which server 
is primary and which is secondary. 
Once configured on the library, do 
not switch the primary SKM server to 
the secondary, or vice versa.
33507 After restoring a saved library 
configuration that has the “Perform scans 
immediately when media is imported into 
the library” policy enabled, the library 
performs a scan on all tapes in the 
partitions with this policy enabled because 
the tapes appear as newly imported. 
Working as designed. To keep this 
from happening, deselect the 
“Perform scans immediately when 
media is imported into the library” 
policy before saving the library 
configuration.
33661 The library allows you to install 4096-bit 
TLS CA (root) certificate for encryption key 
management but will not work with it.
Make sure the TLS CA (root) 
certificate is 2048 bits. 
34027 When adding FC I/O blades or EE blades to 
a library that previously did not have them 
installed, Ethernet connections were not 
made between the MCB and the newly 
installed I/O blades. 
When FC I/O blades or Ethernet 
Expansion blades are installed in the 
library, the following rules regarding 
control management blades (CMBs) 
apply:
• Any module (including the control 
module) that contains FC I/O 
blades or EE blades must also 
contain a CMB.
• A CMB must be installed in the 
control module and all modules 
between the control module and 
the module containing the FC I/O 
blade or EE blade. The CMB 
provides daisy-chained Ethernet 
communication between the 
Management Control Blade (MCB) 
located in the control module and 
the FC I/O blades and EEBs. 
34370 Ticket reports sent directly from library via 
e-mail contain no data (Tools > Reports > 
Tickets, then select Export > Email). 
Viewed and saved reports contain data as 
expected.
Log in from the remote interface and 
download the file (Tools > Reports 
> Tickets, then select Export > 
Save). Then e-mail the report as 
desired. 
35493 Upgraded firmware, then rolled back 
firmware to previous version and received 
a RAS ticket for a non-existent FC I/O 
blade. 
Manually close the erroneous RAS 
ticket.
